A mockery of an interesting idea.

Rating: 4/10 (13 September 2005)

At first, the idea seemed OK, until they escape, of course, when the movie goes suddenly from an interesting made SF to a poor, clisheic action-type. From that moment, the "rebounds" are non-existing, you can easily predict all the continuity of the film, to it's bitter (for me!) end. The fact is that they had something there, but instead of trying to turn the story into a statement, they choose the easy way : the two heroes return vaillanty UTTERLY ALONE to the facility and burst it open!!! You can't even enjoy the idea, because it's so ridiculous that two people would succeed (and of course, they do). I watched till the end in the hope (alas!, mistaken) that the makers of the movie would have an idea for the ending, something that would question some of their (ours?) society values and maybe a way to change it, but I was disappointed once again. The good parts were the special effects, nicely done, and, by the way, with plenty of advertising everywhere. The bad part was the rest of the movie....
